4 Bedroom Detached House

KingsLand are delighted to offer this outstanding development of four individually designed properties to be constructed alongside the newly renovated Golden Valley Farmhouse, set in the idyllic village of Charlton Horethorne on the Somerset/Dorset border. Built by renowned developers, Hopkins Estates, these high specification homes will retain existing architectural features whilst providing the very best example of contemporary luxury living.

At Golden Valley, each property provides open plan living with stylish kitchens, dining and living areas, a utility room, luxurious en-suite bedrooms and beautifully proportioned private gardens with off-road parking and either car port or double garage. An eco-responsible approach is at the forefront of these exceptionally designed homes, which will include air source heating.

Barn Conversion 1 - A wonderful opportunity to acquire a 4-bedroom barn conversion situated on the site of Golden Valley Farm.

Entering into the hall, the kitchen opens out into a wonderful open plan living space with separate utility room. A kitchen island with inset sink looks across to the family seating area with French doors to enjoy the garden and the beautiful rolling hills beyond. The living space extends through to the living/dining room with built-in storage cupboards and three further sets of French doors to gardens at the South and East of the property providing ample opportunity to enjoy the sunlight throughout the day. Two spacious double bedrooms are on the ground floor, both with en-suite shower rooms and one with built-in wardrobe. A WC is conveniently located in the hallway next to an understairs storage cupboard. Upstairs, a further double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and en-suite shower room sits next to the principal bedroom with en-suite bath and shower room and separate dressing area.

Outside
The property is approached via a shared driveway from Water Lane leading to a double carport with parking for several vehicles in front and an EV charging point. The rear garden is mostly laid to lawn with a 4-bay secure cycle store and bin storage area.

An early reservation will provide the opportunity to ensure that kitchen and bathroom aesthetics can be individualised to your own requirements.

Charlton Horethorne has a thriving community with a popular public house, village shop, church, community hall and primary school. The nearby picturesque Abbey town of Sherborne has a wonderful array of boutique shops and eateries and in 2024 it was voted the best place to live in the South-West by The Times.

Footpaths and bridleways surround the village making it ideal for walking, cycling and riding. Sailing and water sports are available at Sutton Bingham Reservoir (near Yeovil) or on the South Coast. Horse racing can be enjoyed at courses in Wincanton, Salisbury, Bath and Exeter with Golf courses in Yeovil, Sherborne, Wincanton and Wheathill.
